Noob question about LED.

Was wondering if I would be okay to switch from 2 platinum led p300 panels to 400 w citizen cobs while in flowering. I just want to know if going from blurple light to white light will effect my ladies in flowering.

They'll notice that something's changed, if that's what you mean. As long as you keep the light schedule where it was, I'd think you'd be fine.

I just don't want to stress them out the snow fruit has about a month left and the Chocolate Mint Og is about a week into flowering.

Do something custom. I'd keep the center light and 4 cobs in the outside corners.

I was definitely thinking about that

i switched during flower on one of my tents and my plants seemed to be fine

I was leaning towards should be ok but I figured I would ask my other indoor horticulturist their opinions. Thanks. I figured light was light but my plants are looking great and I don't want to stress them while flowering. My P300's are great but since they are pretty fab boxed units I'm stuck with the footprint unless I use light movers. I want more even coverage with less clutter so cobs are where I'm going.

Don't do it, your buds will get bigger and more developed with the COBs. (J/k)
I switched over from hps to COBs in a perpetual so, some were one week in, three weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks. They looked thankful. Do it!

I've heard of hermi happening before but who knows what causes that when there's so many factors that may contribute.
I like Smos idea of mixing the 2 for transition purposes at least.
When I veg w/ burple I try to transition for a few days prior to flower myself.
Congrats on going white, I think you'll be glad you did.
Plats are good burples though from what I've heard.

Hermies suck... do the world a favor and destroy every one. Clouding the gene pool.
Also, unless he says something like 6500k 90 cri, he'll be alright. Why would giving more light cause herms, if that's the only change?

Okay so 4 citizen 200w 3500k cobs, 27 days into flower and don't get me wrong these p300s are awesome. I want adjustable coverage and to also lessen how many plugs and wires, you can't Daisy the platinums.
